[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny is from another country and she prefers to take much longer vacations also. Two weeks is her minimum, last summer she left for 6 weeks when her mother died. It's tough OP. If you have a clear contract and vacation policy then she has to know that this request will seem out of the bounds of that. Whether or not you choose to allow it is your prerogative of course. There are ways to do it (we used an agency for short term coverage and it actually worked pretty well.) But it creates work, and probably additional expense for you. So it's no small thing. I think you need to calm down first, and then think carefully about whether she is good enough for you to try to find a way to allow this. Alternatively you can plan to replace her (or accept that she may leave if you say no.) Either way it's crummy. Sorry.[/quote]
